About Pistonio

A cozy 3D puzzle about pistons. Tap a piston and it fires, shoving whatever stands in front of it — your job is to push the golden cube onto the goal plate in as few moves as you can. Sticky pistons pull blocks back, pressure plates open gates, conveyors shift everything after each move. 84 handcrafted levels across five planets, plus a fresh puzzle every day. Clear a level and you earn a chest, and inside the chests live musicians: seat twelve of them on an island and it plays a whole song of its own.

It's a focused arcade game made for fans of the genre. Check the opening instructions for the controls supported by this browser edition.

A couple of things help once you get going: If stages can be replayed, use an earlier stage to practice a difficult input. Watch for timing patterns and compare them with the objective shown by the game.

Add Pistonio to your break rotation if its controls and play style suit you. Read the published privacy information for details about the site and its partners.
